Cifas, the UK’s leading fraud prevention service, which helps protect businesses and individuals from fraud and financial crime through data and intelligence sharing, has selected Lanware as its strategic technology partner to provide the resilient and secure foundation needed to support its operations and growth.
As a growing not-for-profit organisation with an expanding member community, Cifas wanted to improve operational efficiency, strengthen security and give its teams greater agility. It chose Lanware for its combination of technical expertise and strategic guidance, helping ensure technology remains aligned with its business priorities.
Through its award-winning Finance Forward 365 managed service, Lanware will provide Cifas with scalable cloud and infrastructure management, end-user support and a 24/7 help desk tailored to its needs. Specialist Security Operations Centre (SOC) capabilities will also strengthen Cifas’ security posture, helping protect the organisation and maintain the resilience of its critical operations.
Lanware's collaborative approach, sector expertise and strong Microsoft capabilities will provide Cifas with more than a traditional managed service provider. Acting as a strategic technology partner and trusted advisor, Lanware will work closely with Cifas to help ensure technology continues to support the organisation’s long-term goals and evolving business needs.
"I’m genuinely delighted that we chose Lanware to partner with us for our IT support services. We wanted a partner that could be by our side as we accelerate our growth over the next few years. From the outset, what stood out wasn't just their capability and fresh thinking, but how they're built as a business and their desire to really understand us.
The moment that brought that to life was when they asked us to share our key priorities directly with their service desk team. It's a simple idea, but it tells you everything about how they work, making sure that whoever picks up the phone understands what's important to us and why."
Richard Freedman, Deputy CEO & Chief Operating Officer
“We’re excited to begin working with Cifas and to support the organisation behind one of the UK's most important fraud prevention initiatives. It's always rewarding to work with clients whose purpose extends beyond their own organisation, and we look forward to helping Cifas continue its valuable work.”
Henry Duncombe, Managing Director, Lanware
